Don’t you feel bad for giving your kids,, | ADHD Information

Why are you the mark of "if I can do it anyone can do it"?? Are you a
"special" kid? Do you have the IQ of a lobotomized rhesus monkey? Does
your mommy make you wear mittens with strings on them?

You say if you can study then anyone can. Maybe you should open up
a textbook and look up "learning disorders". Would you say that a kid
with dyslexia should be able to open up a book and read it just as
effeciently as you can? Would you say a child with autism should be able
to carry on a conversation just like you can?

You are a twit. I should not even be wasting the energy it takes to slap
this together on a nobody like you.

To call you a moron or a cretin would be a grave insult to either group.

I would think that your books you read all come from the "Dick, Jane
and Spot" series.

Grow up and try to learn something.

You should grow up. Dyslexia, and Autism are REAL disorder. ADD
isn't a real learning disability.

okay. i have adhd and bipolar. is bipolar fake too? am i just a mean
person making up excuses? and i have dislexia. oh wait! let me
guess! that is fake too!Ummm, ADDIZFAKE:

Why are you on a ADHD support site? I think I missed the intro of WHY you are here?

I suppose your next stop is the "cleaning forum" and tell everyone there to stop cleaning???

Nah - his mommy cleans for him.

Poor poor mommy.

Wonder if she's found his collection of "foot lickers" volumes 1 through 50.

ADD is about not paying attention, not doing the work you need to do. You can be hyper and lazy. You are to lazy to do the work you need to do like homework. I have no problem sitting down and spending 5-10 hours straight studying and doing homework; neither should someone with ADD, with or without medication. I have no problem sitting through a two hour lecture and absorbing all of the information, neither should someone with ADD. I have no problem reading through a textbook and gathering all the needed information quickly, and neither should someone with ADD. I have no problem working quickly and efficiently on timed test, and neither should someone with ADD.

If I can do it, then so can anyone else.

[/QUOTE]

I get it now that you have stated this. You have adhd and a doctor said you are just a nut case and your lazy!!!! If it takes you 5 to 10 hours to do homework - your attention span is very bad. Most of us only take 1 to 2 hours to do a normal days homework and that is with adhd!!!

If adhd is not real - what is your excuse for taking this long?? You must just be stupid and lazy!!!!

Learning Disabilities and ADHD

Luvmykids0238968.7753356481 Yes BRATBUTT.

The smallest head injury can cause ADD symptoms.

And I am suspecting you had quite a few of those my friend.

Care for some Ritalin ?
Why are you so angry anyways ?

Inquiring ADD minds want to know.

And how can you assume we all give our children Ritalin ?
Huh ?

From Wikipedia :Possible causes

The exact cause of ADHD remains unknown, but there is no shortage of speculation concerning its etiology [11], most of which centers around the brain. The cerebellum in particular has been shown to be smaller in the brains of those with this disorder.[12] Another possible culprit is a region in the middle or medial aspect of the frontal lobe, known as the anterior cingulate cortex division.[13] The source of these differences is not yet known, but a couple of theories have been presented.

[edit]

Hereditary dopamine deficiency

Research suggests that ADHD arises from a combination of various genes, many of which have something to do with dopamine transporters.[14] Suspect genes include the 10-repeat allele of the DAT1 gene,[15] the 7-repeat allele of the DRD4 gene,[16] and the dopamine beta hydroxylase gene (DBH TaqI).[17] Additionally, SPECT scans found people with ADHD to have reduced blood circulation,[18] and a significantly higher concentration of dopamine transporters in the striatum which is in charge of planning ahead.[19]

[edit]

Diet

It has long been suggested that ADHD could be the result of a nutritional problem. Recent studies have begun to find metabolic differences in these children, indicating that an inability to handle certain elements of one's diet might contribute to the development of ADHD, or at least ADHD-like symptoms. For example, in 1990 the English chemist, Neil Ward, [20] showed that children with ADHD lose zinc when exposed to a food dye. Some studies suggest that a lack of fatty acids, specifically omega-3 fatty acids can trigger the development of ADHD. Support for this theory comes from findings that children who are breastfed for six or more months seem to be less likely to have ADHD than their bottlefed counterparts and until very recently, infant formula did not contain any omega-3 fatty acids at all.[21] Time and futher investigation will perhaps tell whether this correlation is reliable or merely a coincidence.

Despite the uncertainty of nutrition as a cause of ADHD it does play a role in the diagnosis and treatment of the disorder. Certain dietary issues, most commonly a moderate to severe protein deficiency, can cause symptoms consistent with ADHD.[22]

[edit]

External Factors

There is no compelling evidence that social factors, alone, can create ADHD. (However, see discussion of parental role in section below) The few environmental factors implicated fall in the realm of biohazards including alcohol, tobacco smoke, and lead poisoning. Allergies (including those to artificial additives)[23] as well as complications during pregnancy and birth--including premature birth--might also play a role.

[edit]

Smoking during pregnancy

It has been observed that women who smoke while pregnant are more likely to have children with ADHD.[24]. Nicotine is known to cause hypoxia (lack of oxygen) in the uterus, which could lead to brain damage in the unborn child. Smoking could therefore play a major role in the child's development of the disorder prior to birth.

[edit]

Head injuries

Head injuries may cause a person to present with ADHD-like symptoms, possibly because of damage done to the patient's frontal lobes. Because symptoms were attributable to brain damage, earliest designations for ADHD was "Minimal Brain Damage". [25]

[edit]

Treatment

There are many options available to treat people diagnosed with ADHD. The options with the greatest scientific support include a variety of medications, behavior modification, and educational interventions.

Findings of a large randomized controlled trial [26][27] suggest that:

Medication alone is superior to behavioral therapy alone.The combination of behavioral therapy and medication has a small benefit over medication alone.

He needs a good spanking !!!

I'll show him how lazy my hand is .

I'll whip that ADDIZFAKE right out of him.

Come over BOY let me get medival on yer A** !!!

worldisround38968.615150463

he doesn't have a clue what ADHD/ADD is.

I do feel sorry for him really ,most of us ADD/ADHDers have above average IQ and have a fullfilled professional life.LCDC fights forest fires for christ sake,hardly lazy.

we actually have to work harder to get where we are so laziness doesn't come into it.even saying that ,to have to spend 5 to 10 hours to do homework is a little bit worrying,that is what could be called being a little bit slow on the intake.

don't worry you don't have ADD/ADHD you are just mentally challenged.

another thing:not all of us medicate our children and some who do are not doing it for the fun of it either,it breaks their hearts but it is the only way for their children to live a fullfilled life.(wonder why i am bothering,i probably lost him a long time ago,he probably is wondering what IQ is)

Exactly LCdc. Good point. I was wondering this myself. It does not make sense that it takes him 5 -10 hrs to do homework and study but yet he absorbs everything in a lecture ?

Are you absorbing what an idiot we think you are yet ?
Your A**IZFAKE.

If you think it is fake, why are you here??

I have reported this troll! PLease do the same!If you knew anything about ADHD, you would know that these kids are the opposite of lazy, they are too active in an attempt to jump start their brains. Take your ignorant self somewhere else.THATS NOT AT ALL TRUE! I ALREADY REPORTED YOU!Reportedme for what. I am just speaking the truth. There is no evidence to support this ADD Fraud.you are not speaking the truth! You are offending me! And I'm sure that I"m
not the only person you have insulted! People come here for support not to
be told that add is fake!

[QUOTE=candyhound21410]IT IS NOT FAKE![/QUOTE]

It is just a way to make lazy kids not feel bad about being lazy.

Medicine that they don't need. ADD is just another name for lazyness. You shouldn't be treating them like they have a disability, you should be punishing them for their lazyness.

IT IS NOT FAKE!

COOL,IS IT TROLL OPEN SEASON AGAIN????????

Oh! Great another TRoll Fest... bet you he is 14/15. any advance on that

This one is so pathetic and simple minded I can hardly feel it is worth going after. Some trolls pretend they know something about ADHD and try to persuade others to not take meds. This one is obviously a sad case - a perfect example of what inbreeding does over several generations.

It's like comparing a valid argument where one person makes a point and the other a counterpoint - to "am not" "am too". It's nearly laughable.

Report? Yes. Ignore? Obviously.

[QUOTE=Luvmykids02]I guess he is too LAZY to go search for the facts he doesn't have[/QUOTE]

Hay, i sent him his warning!!! send the pms to me for the complaints so i can take care of this! I'll have it from there. I did tell him this belongs in the debate board not on the others. hopefully he will follow the rules or the boot.

I can't restrain myself from laughing. I vote ADDIZFAKE as the most pathetic troll ever.

Go away troll and you have been REPORTED!

Defintion:

In Internet terminology, a troll is someone who comes into an established community such as an online discussion forum, and posts inflammatory, rude, repetitive or offensive messages designed intentionally to annoy or antagonize the existing members or disrupt the flow of discussion.

You're such a miserable idiot. So tell us this "truth" and back it up with "evidence".

um yeah dude why are you here??? seriously do you have no life.... oh wait I'm just stating the obvious here. I have seen just about every post you have put up and all you say is "oh your lazy, your kids are lazy, bla bla bla" I wanna see you back it up with scientific proof why it is fake. I'm not doubting you, I belief in freedom of speech and the fact that everybody has a right of opinion so back it up man!!!! lets see your facts!!

I am not some troll. And ADD is being lazy, kids say they can't concentrate. They can't because they are Lazy.I guess he is too LAZY to go search for the facts he doesn't have

[QUOTE=ADDIZFAKE]I am not some troll. And ADD is being lazy, kids say they can't concentrate. They can't because they are Lazy.[/QUOTE]

Well, that's a difficult question. Most Trolls can do more than cut and paste the same response over and over. And, while I don't like Trolls (unless of course they come with a fine red wine), most can at least make up some kind of idiotic explanation for their total lack of intelligence.

You on the other hand cannot ... so ... I'm thinking more along the line of a Pillbug instead of a Troll.

Next thing that troll will say is Ld and all disorders are lazyness. Not so! YOU ARE NOT AWARE HOW HARD SCHOOL CAN BE THESE DAYS YOU TROLL!iI STILL THINK THE STAFF NEED TO CHANGE NOT OUR KIDS. THEY NEED CURRICULUMS THAT FITS THE NEEDS OF ALL KIDS. I DON'T CARE WHAT ANY STAFF SAYS CAUSE WE KNOW OUR CHILD BEST. THEIR WAYS HAVEN'T HELPED OUR SON SO LITTLE. HE NEEDS WHAT HE HAS NOW. OUR SON WORKS AT EACH SUBJECT BASED ON WHAT HIS ACHEIVEMENT SCORE SHOWS. 5TH GRADE EXCEPT IN READING/LA WITH A CLASS OF 4 STAFF AND 8 KIDS. DOING WELL.HIS OTHER TWO ARE AT 2/3 GRADE STUFF. ivanhoe38968.3762731481Take your soapbox and your nasty self somewhere else. You are not welcome here. Addisfake. you say we are just lazy. Laziness is not caring in disguise. If we do not care why do we run around from appt. to appt. to do counseling,pay medications hold down a job and raise kids. Yes, some us even have good careers . Is this laziness ? Lazy kids and adults don't cry when they fail at something. Lazy people don't care !!! worldisround38968.5931134259

If I can do it, then so can anyone else.

What is your problem ? I was diagnosed with ADD.
I was never lazy in school and got good grades.
What the hell are you talking about KID ? Do you have a little bro or sis that is getting more attention than you ?
worldisround38968.6090162037

Hey can you bottle up some of that laziness you are talking about and send it my way - I need a rest!!!!

Aren't you ashamed of being so bored that you have to make an ignorant statement for the title of the thread??

Note to self - LCdc - stop responding to ignorance!!!!!!!!
